You don't like baroque? You don't like opera? You're just racist. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Okay, thanks! I had all the job requirements, but they were kind of vague, so my neighbor's cat might have also met them. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Over in D.C., military bases are no longer gun-free zones. Banning guns on a military base is an idea that makes no sense. You know who is on base. If you don't trust them, kick them off base or out of the military. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/04/hegseth-signs-order-restoring-second-amendment-rights-military/ npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye West Virginia split from Virginia due to ideological differences, and that split has been very wide lately. They eliminated some government commissions and expanded constitutional carry to 18-20 year olds. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/04/west-virginia-expands-constitutional-carry-18-20-year/ npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye You can actually do it with just onions, but the bay leaf adds a surprising amount of bonus goodness. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I'm not autistic - I'm German. It's just a fun little survey that's an excuse to talk about German philosophers. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye My son is mildly autistic - just enough that people who don't know the signs think there's something wrong, and people who do assure the first group it's okay. (He once almost got in trouble at a gun store due to sperging out. Luckily one of the staff worked with autistic kids and told the other stuff TJ Jr. was just really happy.) Knowing what's wrong with him has helped us work out better ways of doing things. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I know nothink. Nothink! npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I actually am German. I took the German or Autistic diagnostic and I'm apparently just German. Kant would approve. https://german.millermanschool.com/ https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/341/911/643/793/997/original/107a52e8c967f41d.png npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye J.D. Vance started strong, but I haven't seen much from him lately. It looks good that he was put in charge of the fraud team and the next week there were arrests in California. It's a nice contrast to Harris being in charge of the border and nothing changing. He used to do a lot more press, which I think he did well. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Paris syndrome (in Japanese: パリ症候群, Pari shōkōgun) is a sense of extreme disappointment exhibited by many individuals when visiting Paris, who feel that the city does not live up to their expectations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_syndrome npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I know how this ends: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0414852 npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Whatever happened to Amway? People used to be everywhere selling that and trying to get folks to sign up. I haven't heard anything about in ages. I used to work with a guy who became an Amway dealer. I think you had to buy or sell a minimum amount each month and he always had this stuff that seemed one step below generic. I heard Amway cement cleaner was the best and tried to buy some from him. It was a hard work to convince him I just wanted a single box, not to become a salesperson. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Sometimes there's good memes at the end. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye He's really glad about it, but he's also annoyed because I do this a lot - he tries to get an appointment for something, and after he gives up I make a few phone calls and have him set up in the next day or two. Not sure how I do it. I just start reading all the small print, ask some questions, and suddenly he's on the schedule. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye In California, when there's a petition the government doesn't like, the first step is to claim all the signatures are false. I'm waiting to see if that happens here. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye They did it. Alberta secessionists have collected enough signatures to vote on leaving Canada. And if that vote is successful, Quebec is going to be super jealous. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/alberta-separatists-claim-enough-signatures-to-force-referendum/ar-AA1ZQnbZ npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOq_D-iLQWM npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Erika got her sauce of coffee, ran around like a mad cat for 30 minutes, then collapsed and slept for at least 10 hours. And no other mice dared show their faces for as long as we lived there. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Many years ago we had a cat who liked coffee. You had to keep an eye on your cup, or a paw would stealthily reach up and over the side, dip in for a soak, and Erika would happily lick her paw for the next hour. One time we had a mouse. We explained to both cats that this was unacceptable, a poor job performance, and still we had a mouse. After a week, my ex told the cats that if one of them caught the mouse, that cat could have a saucer of coffee. Erika caught the mouse that night. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I read an article about companies using AI to write job descriptions, job hunters using AI to apply, then companies using AI to sort the responses. All of it done by AI, optimized to all heck, and none of it resulting in people getting jobs or companies getting the right people. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye You can send a kid to college, but you can't make him think. Same for adults. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I use MP3Tag to standardize all my tags and file names. Completely V4V. I've donated several times over the years because I'm constantly finding new tricks with it. Yes it's a drag to have to rename everything, but if you want consistency, you'll have to create it yourself. Also works with MP4 files, for TV show episodes. https://www.mp3tag.de/en/ npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye She is, in fact, that big. #memes https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/305/268/060/759/823/original/38884916c63c44c3.png npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye That's one way to handle the use of the language no longer considered appropriate for white people. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye By the Iranians. Turns out Patel likes travel and cigars. No embarrassing emails. Yet. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye The new Harry Potter will be more representative #memes https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/304/834/614/346/682/original/deb540b849eab817.png npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye We have more information on how Patel got hacked #memes https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/304/830/784/791/432/original/7199a9bd695c197b.png npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye TBF, the famous bowl is pretty lit. It's like a chicken sundae - mashed potatoes topped with corn and gravy, topped with popcorn chicken, topped with cheddar cheese. Plus, a lot of KFC locations also serve Taco Bell, so you can disrespect two cultures at once. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Washington State is being investigated for housing discrimination: "Low-income borrowers qualify for complete loan forgiveness after owning the house for five years. To qualify for the program, applicants must have a parent or grandparent of black, Hispanic, Native American, Pacific Islander, or Indian descent. Persons of European, Japanese, Arab, or Jewish ancestry do not appear to qualify." https://www.hud.gov/news/hud-no-26-023 npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I think some people just can't get enough of looking at toe fungus and follow him for the really dumb lulz. I was sad for at least several minutes when he didn't when the gayest person in the fediverse contest last year. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye The comments on this music video are the best. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKXu_eL3IhE&list=RDaLnZ1NQm2uk&index=5 npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye The most amazing part of this story is that you can make money playing cornhole. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I see folks are brainstorming how to bypass the Strait of Hormuz... #memes https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/287/504/014/750/798/original/956f4ae33293a6ea.png npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Tip of the day: If you are going to put meat on wooden skewers, first soak the skewers in water for about 15 minutes. This will prevent the meat from sticking and it will slide off easily every time. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I've been waiting for a day warm enough to spray this stuff: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0072289CA It does a great job, if it's not too cold. I already did about half the yard, and the results are obvious. Got more bottles on order for the rest. Unfortunately, the inspection was done before I did the spray, and it takes a few days to show. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Delta is revoking special privileges for Congressional members because they don't have enough staff without funding. Now make the revocation permanent. Let lawmakers live in the world they create. https://notthebee.com/article/democrats-jam-tsa-lines-delta-makes-congress-stand-in-them npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye It's spring! That time of year when a young man's attention turns to... HOA violations. Yes, we're still getting temps in the 30's, but we had a day nice enough for someone from the HOA to write up everyone for not keeping up with the weeds that showed up the day prior. And don't say "don't live in an HOA". NC law requires them in 90% of neighborhoods. Probably so the government doesn't have to maintain the roads, etc. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Wasn't Tim Pool one of the folks receiving Russian money for his podcast? Or maybe it was Chinese. It was a year or two ago that a bunch of podcasters where revealed to be getting insane payments. Everyone claimed they thought they deserved it. I'd look it up, but the No Agenda website isn't working for me right now. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye It's better if you turn off the sound. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Mom in the middle is wearing what we used to call "a Polish brassiere". npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Old people trivia: White-out, AKA Liquid Paper, was invented by Bette Nesmith Graham, mother to Michael Nesmith. Michael, of course, was famous for the Nesmith Stratocaster, one of the more popular violins. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bette_Nesmith_Graham npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye There's making fun of the death, and there's making fun of the person who died. It's rarely cool to say someone "deserved" to die, though government officials who kill their own citizens probably do. (Not politicians who don't vote the way you want. Not people working for agencies you don't like.) npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye But think of all the lesbians you could meet with an Outback! npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Don't do it! I got rid of my box, and six months later had to order a cable that I know was in the box. Getting rid of the box is a guarantee that you'll need those! npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye "Sinking" and "sea level rise" are opposites. Is the land going down or is the water going up? npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Does it taste like cabbage or kielbasa? npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Lots of cabbage for sale everywhere today. And it's going to stay on sale because no one likes cabbage. You can chop it up and hide it in things, or use it to hold tasty things, but no one wants just a bunch of cabbage. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I saw a Trump "I did that" sticker on gas pump today. People forget how high it was not that long ago. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I don't know much about "The Man Who Fell to Earth" but I heard the movie is a real downer. Is the book also a scathing indictment of the human condition? npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I prefer science fiction. Hit me with your best titles. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Oh! He also did "My Italian Bulldozer" which was an absolute delight. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I read a few of the books a few years ago, and it says something that I still remember them (I go through a lot of books). As you say, not fast-paced, often witty, usually a good use of time. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye By himself, he was using more than two people. I bought him multi-vitamins and probiotic supplements. Maybe that's what they do? After moving out, he mentioned his new housemates buy unpleasantly cheap toilet paper, so I send him home with a 9-pack sometimes. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Okay NA.S. I've told you what books I'm reading / listening to. What's your suggestions? Fiction only. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Yeah, driving is a good time to maintain situational awareness. I'll give it a try in the car, and switch to Kindle if needed. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Thinking of trying the book version of "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo". The movie was pretty intense, and I heard the book is twice as crazy. Might be a little much for commuting. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye With my mostly former housemate mostly out of the house, there are a lot of things we don't consume as quickly. For example, toilet paper usage has dropped by maybe two-thirds. What was that boy doing in there? npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I love science fiction! Especially if there's a technology that makes the story impossible otherwise. I tried David Weber's Safehold series, but by book two it was a lot of meetings. I liked the idea of trying to progress technology without actually progressing technology. I'll give the Honor Harrington series a look. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Still working my way through the Expanse series. Wasn't crazy about "Cibola Burn" because it seemed a bit passive. While the crew of the Rocinante has tried to participate in the plot in past novels, this was a lot stuff just happening to James Holden and Amos, while Naomi and Alex try to fight fate. Still, it was a good story with only a few things broadcast in advance. Holden made a decision which I expect he'll regret in the next novel. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Courtesy of Seatree #memes https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/222/589/880/630/682/original/5ce13dedccfb63cf.png npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I've got you fam https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G25MXBXX npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Have an older relative who can't master talking into a phone?

This is definitely a good idea. Large property owners and property management companies distort the market to the detriment of renters. Not sure of all the details yet, so I can't say if this is a good or bad implementation. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/senate-passes-major-housing-affordability-bill-warren-scott-rcna263046 npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye You can also use plus addressing with most email providers. If your email is [email protected] , sign up with [email protected] . [email protected] , etc. Gmail and most email providers will ignore everything after the + and you'll be able to see who sold you. There is nothing you can do with this information as you're already on everybody's list, but at least you know. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Depends. The high tops will be warmer but probably provide better ankle support for hiking. On the other hand the sneaker will be nicer in hot weather and more comfy for casual walking. The sneaker will also allow better flexibility for most sports. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I need to wear them to get into the employee only areas.

Where's resting biatch face when you need it? npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye At the grocery store today, some random guy asked for help finding tuna. I get asked for help a lot, so I just roll with it (I had already been asked this trip by someone else if the store sold yogurt). What was new was that he went into a long talk about how Americans smile a lot, except in Texas. He was a Canadian from Italy. Or perhaps an Italian from Canada. He was born in Italy but was living in Canada. Except he was also spending a lot of time in the US, looking for canned tuna. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Important update for Pokemon players #memes https://static.noauthority.social/media_attachments/files/116/214/592/186/270/368/original/479f9465554087ae.png npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye British TV uses normal looking people, and I'm okay with that.

My insurer offered me a tiny discount to have an app monitor my driving. I asked if my rates could go down, or only up. He admitted he had only heard of the app being used to raise rates. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye "Hell is coming to breakfast." is bada$$ af. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye It's weird how the party of "words are violence" keeps saying violent words. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye I don't know how many of those Persians are still left in Iran.

The price of college skyrocketed when the government got involved with student loans. Suddenly there was no cap on what schools could charge. Does it really cost $6K/student for four months of buildings and instructors? No, but colleges can charge it and spend it, so they do. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye They already did Apple. The verdict was that Apple could force users into its store, but it couldn't force sellers into its payment system. This means that Apple can require you to download games and DLC only from the store, but if you buy an add-on, Apple must let the developer sell it to you from the developer's website or other source. You can buy some things off the PlayStation network already, so not sure if the situation is identical. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye And here we are.

If they couldn't find any evidence, there isn't any. If you would like, I could post links to other debunkers who all say the same thing: there are no court records, and the rumor came from a single person with no proof. If you have anything that would lend this rumor credence, feel free to share.

The hispanic man behind the counter would cut up 3 pounds into decent sized chunks and that was that. Now all the local butchers are halal, and don't sell pork. Which is why I now have 8 pounds of solid pork butt in the fridge. npub1h94648pz9g26dusfgtxkudkwlmlx4twy7t6qhgunvt7l44yhn5lqm6m03n TJ of the Side-Eye Sigh.
